To convert to MPH, just multiply the speed in kilometers per hour by .62.
That means that 180kmh x .62 = ~112mph, which is faster than I would take a fourth gen (no airbags, light weight, deadly speed, you know )

The Hatchs have slightly better Aerodynamics, theres some EE9 owners Iv talked to have taken thier cars to the redline in 5th which is 241kmh on the Autobahns and reported that they remaind quite stable. But thats on a very smooth straight road designed for sustained high speeds. I know my Civic was certianly more stable nudging the speed limiter at 180kph that a mates CRX was, but then the EF9 has quite radicaly differnt Suspension settings to other Civics, and I know an ex's 1.3xx was starting to get a bit light and floaty at even 100kph.

Down force!
Short wheel base cars will never be stable at high speeds, thats what long wheel bases are for. Short w/b is good for the twisty's |
